“Store owner invited robbers at night to steal their own goods” is how this article would word that

This isnt a leak. This is incompetency.

Get a load of this guy

The dilemma is “would you push a button for money” not “would you push a button knowing what it did for money”

very few people know or care about who schmidt is or was

But will there be enough to counterract the people who just use the app? That’s the real question. No one doubts a move like this increases fediverse people. So did the API scurfuffle, yet people still regularly complain about the fediverse being unpopulated.

I’ve been on fedi since 2015—over a decade. I know it’s gotten bigger. Yet, every year, for 10 years straight, are people who complain about how small the userbase is. I don’t see this at all changing that.

Direct deposit is after taxes. Bi-weekly or weekly deposit is the most common.

Take home vs before taxes are very different numbers

Nothing you will do will stop Spez from getting rich

$150,000/yr (yes big, less than median for software engineers in the US) is $2k/week, $8k/month

Edit: $2k/week after taxes because direct deposit is the context of this discussion

This was just inevitable for Google. Google is no longer an open source company. Hasn’t been for maybe a decade or more. They abused the good spirit of open source for their corporate benefit and are ending that relationship on their terms. Get used to it Android users.

No one who wanted Andrew Cuomo to win wanted Mamdani to win. Did Chuck Schumer elect Mamdani?

None of that is a monopoly. Ecosystems have fragmented before because of decisions and Linux wouldn’t be immune to it. Alternative forks of entire ecosystems happen.

Mamdani overthrew the economy in New York City everyone. Untold millions… dying in the streets.

Leftist politicians, even if they win, will be the destruction of all human kind. We have to accept capitalism and its destructive wake. It’s the best way forward for humanity. Pay no attention what-so-ever to the capitalists blowing up school girls to bloody bits raining in streets in Iran to manipulate the oil market—they’re failing so it’s okay as long as little girls die for capitalism. Stop! Fighting! Capitalism! leftists! IT’S GOOD FOR YOU!

Chrome and blink’s not a monopoly guys!

by several sources I have access to

Does your government limit your access to any sources?

But also all of those things are true and verifiable. That’s freedom in America baby—free to be rich and if you’re not filthy rich and just middle class or above you’re good as long as you’re white and male. Not so free for many other people.

I heard online that it’s illegal to be against Christianity in America, as well as it being illegal to be against fascism, or ‘anti fascist’ in the USA as you’ll be labelled a domestic terrorist. I heard in America that the cops won’t kill you if you are a white person walking at night but not if you are a black teenager. I heard in America that the government will allow your father to shoot you until you die if you disagree with him politically but ask to see his gun. I heard in America you will be killed by the government for being homeless poor and there’s nothing anyone will do about it.

But America is where freedom is. If you live in any conditions freer than that, you are actually in a less free country than America because actually America is actually freer than any other country actually.

Where in the world do those things not exist? Do you live there?

social media just needs http requests to exist, how does pre web 2.0 fix things honestly. gui apps have existed since windows 95 or even earlier, how is the tiktok app technically different than the space cadet paddle game with added network functionality?
